learning things about myself

I am my own worst emeny. Dear friends, if anyone reads this it might help for you so think about it. I find that if I have someone on the brain then I will think about them and its hard to stop, part of that includes when I should be sleeping because I over think and over analyse everything. This is what I have learned which might help, if I don't get the sleep I need (unlike a lot of people who just get grumpy), I get "depressed" which is quickly remedied by a quick nap 20 minutes is sufficient to give me the rest I need and I am good for a while. But if I don't then I just get more and more depressed. I feel it is a good time for an analogy, you see it's like driving a car or taking a photo... when you have an ubalanced clutch and gas ratio (I'm talking pedals) your car will either rev very high, or will stall out... but if you have the proper balance of the two then your car will run fine and likewise with photography, without the proper balance of shutter speed and aperature you will get a photo too dark or too light. I am really lacking a crucial part the spiritual element, for me this can leave me to think and feel that maybe God doesn't care. The reality is that God cares deeply and passionately about me and about you as well, though when I don't get enough sleep I quickly learn that my perception is skewed.

all of this to say, take time to have your balance in life between sleep/awake and people/solitude will give you the tools that you need to do what you have to do.
